Surviving the Andes Plane Crash

January 28, 2013 | 0 Comments

I have no idea what I’d do in this scenario. I like to think I’d be good in a survival situation but I’m not convinced I could do some of the things detailed in this video. I’ve got absolutely no judgement towards these people, they did what they had to do to survive. Hopefully I’ll […]

The Art of Packing

June 22, 2012 | 0 Comments

This obviously relies on you having Louis Vuitton luggage. I do not have Louis Vuitton luggage so my packing will remain the “throw it all in and hope I don’t get searched method”.

This man is the reason I love football as much as I do and my brilliant brother has now made my shitty day good. I am now the proud owner of this – Eric Cantona Pop Art. On the shit side I’ve been to the dentist and had a load of work done and I’ve […]

Face of an angel

December 28, 2005 | 0 Comments

According to MyHeritage.com I look 65% like Ian Thorpe the Australian Olympic swimmer and 52% like Brad Pitt. My girlfriend is a lucky lady. Worringly I also look 57% like Hilary Clinton. So technically, I look 58 % like this: …or something.

Hello interweb people, Been busy with lots of project work and lots of other projects, so many I’m actually going to tell you about all of them, ‘cos it’s my website and I can do that. Not interesting at all. Finally managed to make the Jscript compile using the ROTOR framework, for some reason when […]

Home Alone

October 15, 2005 | 0 Comments

I’m at home alone today, everybody’s got out so I’m getting some work done/playing on Super Monkey Ball, bought it last week and it’s awesome. Brilliant playing that with all the lads. I’ve finished the first piece of my final year project, it was only a 2000 word report but it’s a good feeling to […]

Knunder-erific

October 5, 2005 | 1 Comments

Just found a link on my old college website about some kid (Stephen Frizzle) trying to get the word Knunder in the Oxford English Dictionary, now that is a creative fella. It’s been submitted to Wikipedia and basically all over the place. He’s trying to get it done within the next 5 years to win […]

9:15 – Just arrived at lecture on Data Mining for Advanced Information Systems. Feel quite good considering I’ve only had a few hours sleep. 9:18 – Best get comfy, I’m confused already, I don’t know what the title means “Issues in DM & KD” DM is Data Mining but what’s KD. Maybe I’m not alright, […]

Time is my enemy

September 27, 2005 | 0 Comments

I figured as it’s been a long time in between posts again I best show myself and explain. I’ve been getting to grips with my final year project. Finally got cracking on it now, I’ve decided to create a web interface/front end for a command line script tester. I haven’t quite figured everything out but […]

The Dreaded Man Flu

September 19, 2005 | 0 Comments

Revenge has turned into nothingness. I wasn’t going to let on that they had woken me up, I laughed, they realised, I punched them, they laughed, I kicked their asses at MarioKart. I had the worst attack of “Man Flu” yesterday, I was shivering, full of phlem (delightful) and coughing like I had whooping cough. […]

It’s Saturday and I’ve still not done much. I’ve started thinking about my project and how I’m going to get a java program to run off the server using PHP, that’s a problem I’ll have to figure out sooner rather than later. The first piece of work (a 2500 word Initial Report) is due in […]

I’m now back at Uni and loving every minute of it. It’s the third year and I’m doing nothing, I don’t need to register ’til Thursday so I’ve done nothing since Saturday when I moved in, except decorate that is. I’m now sat in my room, it’s all tidy and looking forward to going to […]

September 8, 2005 | 0 Comments

First of all, long delay between posts. I have a feeling this may become a more regular occurance as Uni starts again and I have something to do outside of my room rather than the entire summer pretty much in here. The delay this time was firstly, because I’ve been on holiday to sunny Spain […]

Going to Spain tomorrow, Rach arrives tonight so it’ll probably be the last post for a while, not even going to bother doing the whole diary thing because that just irritated me when I had to type it up. All I’ll say is, hopefully I won’t be having much time to write or do anything […]

Spending but Thrifty

August 29, 2005 | 0 Comments

Bank Holiday Monday and I’ve been shopping, like most of the UK I’ve been out spending my hard earned money. One difference to normal shopping, I set myself a budget, maturity or getting old? I only wanted to spend £40 and I only ended up spending £25, even better. I kind of had the thought […]

Tips on my Last Shift

August 28, 2005 | 0 Comments

I’ve managed to charm my way to £16.52 worth of tips today, not bad when I’m only on £5/hour. We had three serving staff on for 70 people in house, what a nice last shift, compare that to the other day (6 serving staff/30 people) and you don’t get the best of management. One woman […]

Work was actually quite good again, this is getting weird. Kept all the guests happy and one woman kept calling me her favourite barman everytime she came to the bar, she kept winking at me too but I ignored that. After about 6 hours I was shattered but then I got a second wind and […]

I feel happy, oh so happy, I feel…….

August 27, 2005 | 0 Comments

Work was surprisingly good. Absolutely nothing to do with anything to do with work, I’m just happy still. It’s a girlfriend returning high. Yep that’s right, I’m still in a stupidly happy mood and a text message I’ve just received from her has made it even better/worse depending if you’re me or somebody having to […]

I started bidding on a barebones shuttle system as an extra PC but my past two bids have both been outbid. I was quite looking forward to it but I’m not paying anymore for it. I can’t afford it. I’ve wanted a Shuttle PC for years and I think I might just end up buying […]

I always felt safe playing computer games, after all they’re not real, apparently you can take things too far: South Korean dies after games session On my course I have to understand the design of new software, this can cover games, now who in their right mind would agree to this as a good game […]

Was violently woken this morning by Mum shouting for the car keys, turns out they were where I said they were. Dad needed an ink cartridge fetching from Nottingham urgently so off I popped. The place was right on the edge of St. Ann’s, the roughest area, murders, shootings, lovely stuff. I managed to get […]

Sunday – The Sabbath

July 31, 2005 | 0 Comments

Well supposedly it’s the Sabbath, the day of rest, all I’ve done is bloody work. I’ve been on a split, on a Sunday, I’ve never done that in the three years I’ve been there. It’s been a bit crap, although I did convince a little kid and his brother to say “Liverpool are rubbish” to […]

Too much nakedness

July 30, 2005 | 0 Comments

Had a not particularly interesting day at work again, 30 people turned up for lunch at 12:25pm and they were supposed to be leaving at 1pm and seemed to be getting annoyed when there food wasn’t ready straight away. If they wanted it faster, they should have arrived earlier. After work I was greeted with […]

Excellent day, not exactly healthy but still excellent. Almo got a little worse […]

Work was dull today, in fact today was a pretty shitty day really. Had to visit the dentist this morning (who incidently is new and is Polish, which makes talking to him great fun). Haven’t been in two years, the news wasn’t exactly good. I need seven fillings and root canal treatment. Ah. Even funnier, […]

Just watched Anchorman again, that film actually makes me cry with laughter. Sheer genius comedy. Fell asleep at 4pm, the house had people in it, woke up at 7:30pm, twas empty. I contemplated alien conspiracy, but then I became a bit more rational and decided it was a government plot to mess with my mind […]

I woke up this morning to find the weirdest program on TV, admittedly it was kids TV and I’m 20 but who cares. It’s called Bamzooki and kids design there own Zooks and pit them against the other teams. It’s rubbish TV but the idea seems good for the internet, maybe a league (well there’s […]

Thursday today, that means only one thing, Pay-Day, made even better this week by the fact I didn’t get paid last week so a double wage is on the way. Woo Hoo! Money, money, money! It’s official, I am becoming a proper geek. I stayed up ’til 3am to work on the site (like you […]

Just found this little program whilst surfing, Crimson Editor. I had been using a trial version of UltraEdit 32 for a while but this seems a pretty good replacement for programming in, as long as it doesn’t add little odd symbols and bugger up my code I’ll be happy. I recommend.

Not only did I survive the horrific storm but when I woke, I was met by two things that cheered me up, an e-mail from my long distance girlfriend, currently in a CCUSA camp in the Santa Cruz kind of area, thats quite a few thousand miles from Lincolnshire, England and my grandad got his […]
